Management of multiple subscriber identity modules

摘要

Management of multiple subscriber identity modules by a server is disclosed. The server includes one or more processors, and one or more memories storing instructions, that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the server, for each subscriber identity module belonging to a set of subscriber identity modules of a user of a mobile terminal, to: cause an analysis on use of the subscriber identity module; cause a prediction of a future activity status change of the subscriber identity module on the basis of the analysis; and cause an action affecting the activity status of the subscriber identity module on the basis of the prediction.

1. A server comprising:
one or more processors, and one or more memories storing instructions, that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the server, for each prepaid subscriber identity module belonging to a set of subscriber identity modules of a user installed for use by a mobile terminal, to:
cause an analysis on use of the subscriber identity module to determine whether a period of no use is present;cause a prediction of a future activity status change of the subscriber identity module in response to the analysis determining the presence of the period of no use, the future activity status change including taking the subscriber identity module out of use by a mobile phone operator providing the subscriber identity module in response to the period of no use being present; andcause an updating action affecting the activity status of the subscriber identity module on the basis of the prediction such that the period of no use is ended and the subscriber identity module is kept alive, the updating action affecting the activity status of the subscriber identity module on the basis of the prediction including at least one of the following:
causing a top up of a credit of the subscriber identity module in order to keep the subscriber identity module alive;causing a phone call with the subscriber identity module in order to keep the subscriber identity module alive;causing a phone call to the subscriber identity module in order to keep the subscriber identity module alive;causing a data transfer with the subscriber identity module in order to keep the subscriber identity module alive;causing an activation of the subscriber identity module before an expiration of a time limit for the activation in order to keep the subscriber identity module alive;causing a top up of the credit of the subscriber identity module in order to take the subscriber identity module into use; andcausing an order of a new subscriber identity module in order to replace the subscriber identity module that is about to expire.
